young bassmaster Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Alright so I know jigs are versatile baits. Could a person use only jigs year around and catch fish. Such as use a jig tipped with a craw when they want craws and then when the fish want a curly tail worm could you tip a jig with a senko and still have success and then when the fish want baitfish use a swim jig and be covered. Sorry for the multiple questions but I'm trying to figure jig fishing out Quote

Super User Catt Posted October 2, 2017 Super User Posted October 2, 2017 I use a single type of jig for casting, flipping, pitching, & swimming. When working an area I don't change jig type just because the structure/cover changes. 1 Quote
Super User NHBull Posted October 2, 2017 Super User Posted October 2, 2017 I have a buddy who only throws jigs and poppers. He has great results as he has become very proficient with both, but his numbers are lower than mine as I tend to use a more diverse arsenal 1 Quote

Super User WRB Posted October 2, 2017 Super User Posted October 2, 2017 There are hundreds of jig styles and shapes because anglers are always trying to improve performance. To answer your ? yes, you can and I do fish jigs year around using a variety of jig types and weights depending on what the bass are eating and where they are located. Examples; 3/32 & 1/8 oz dart head with 4" curl tail worm, my favorite 7/16 oz hair jig with pork rind trailer, 3/8 oz weedless swim jig with Berkeley Chigger craw, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4 oz plain football jig with GYCB double tail Hula grub, 3/4, 1 oz punch jig with beaver type trailers, 1/4 oz shakey jig with 6" cut tail worms, etc, etc. Tom Quote
